I'm in my hometown this weekend with DD15, visiting my dad. He was rushed to the hospital overnight. Don't have much information yet, but his hemoglobin is very low despite receiving six units of blood two days ago. It looks like he might be spiraling.

If you could, please send him some positive thoughts, comfort, and peace.

You can call me NIK

It is what it is, not what we hope it can be.

When another woman takes your husband,
sometimes the best thing you can do for
yourself is to LET HER HAVE him.
